Millionaire grâce à eBay

Désolè, pas le temps de traduire... Un peu sous l'eau en ce moment: des propales référencement en retard, des clients Platine qui ont besoins de SAV et les aller-retours fournisseur-maison-Laposte. Bref, tout va bien et je croise les doigts pour que cela continue. Mais je ne veux pas non plus délaisser le blog.
Donc, voilà un article que je vous laisse le soins lire sans la traduction.

Et je crois, car ce n'est pas précisé dans l'article, que sa boutique eBay est [www.???.com (information réservée aux abonnés Newsletter ou RSS de ce blog)].

"A trader who has developed a multimillion-pound business has been named the first eBay seller of the year.

Jamie Murray, 28, from St Athan, Vale of Glamorgan, beat 20m other "eBayers" to the auction site's title.

His trading of memory cards and electronic accessories gained the highest number of the site's satisfied customers over the past year.

Since 2004, he has had 125,050 feedback ratings from buyers.

Mr Murray has several thousand items for sale at one time.

He said: "It's fantastic - a bit of a shock really."

His company's turnover up to 2006 reached £2.6m, and he said the majority of that was probably through eBay.


It's very rare that you can go onto a website or walk into a shop and tell immediately how good that shop is

"It started in October 2004. I sold my PS2 on eBay and I didn't actually send my memory card off with it," he said.

"I forgot so I had to sell that separately.

"It was only a tiny item, yet I managed to get £12 or £13 and it was only 50p to post.

"Then I decided leading up to Christmas it might be a good idea to buy the PS2 games console because it was going to be pretty big that year.

"So I bought second hand ones, split them down with the aim of the console covering the costs of the whole package and then the accessories that came with it would be my profit."

No real risk

He said eBay placed a lot of emphasis on feedback.

"It's a huge part, I think, of why it's so successful. It's very rare that you can go onto a website or walk into a shop and tell immediately how good that shop is."

Mr Murray said a percentage of people did not pay for the items they bought.

"But from the seller's point of view you just don't ship the item to them if they don't pay, so there's no real risk," he said.

Mr Murray also said the current round of Royal Mail strikes had had little impact on his business.

"A lot of people are aware [of the strikes] and don't expect their parcel within the next day or two. It really hasn't been a major problem.

"We were expecting it to impact our feedback on eBay but that really doesn't seem to have happened.""

Vendre sur eBay

La Playstation 3 va bientôt sortir en France et on voit déjà les petits malins pointer le bout de leur nez: "Le jour de la sortie, j'en achète 10 et je les revend sur ebay 200 euros plus chers !"...

Et bien il va falloir revenir, parce que si eBay.fr applique exactement les restrictions appliquées sur eBay.com pour vendre cette console, seuls quelques vendeurs privilègiés le pourront.

Voici les règles:

. Il faudra avoir au moins 50 feedbacks
. Le tout avec un taux de satisfaction de 98%
. Avoir un compte Paypal "vérifié"
. Ne proposer que Paypal comme moyen de paiement
. Enfin, enchères obligatoire. Pas de "Achat Immédiat" pour cette console

Pour les autres, c'est 3 consoles en vente maximum...
